  1. Hello boys🤑 It is time to share some more pictures. I took them two days ago and that gives 1 year and half a month (give or take) from my last years FUT hairtransplant in Switzerland, that was done by dr. Sever and dr. Laura Muresanu in Hattingen clinic. Im extremley happy with my results. I started as a pretty advanced Norwood 5, but for the last 6 or 7 months Im living a very peacefull and happy life, given that I got a good HT and got rid myself of a hairpiece that I wore more than 3 years. Im posting a few pictures. Im thinking about showing my face up front, but still need to think about it. If anybody has any toughts, please do share them. Thanks everybody for the support and all the knowledge that I got while reading 4his site!
  2. 11 months+a few days update Im posting outdoor/indoors pictures Crown isnt still filled up all around. But I will wait out a bit more to give a final conclusion. If you have any toughts, pls comment
  3. Hey Havar. Thanks for your nice comments. So, when I get up I do style my hair, but I just do it with my hands and its pretty quick. I do move some of my hair to overlap some part, but I really dont use some strategy, or try to comb it over. I usually pull my hairline with both of my hands and then split it on the sides, let the hair fall and then try to see if I need to improve something😔 Hair always looks better when its clean and nice, also if you blow dry it and shot it afterwards. These pics were always done when I washed my hair in the evening and then they were taken right in the morning. That means hair was still fresh. I think everybody needs to be honest so I will also add that when hair starts to be more greasy you can expect that some patches or areas dont look that great. I would say this happens on 3 or fourth day. I usually wash my hair every 3 days. That was an advice long time given by some dermatologists (not just one). Also I would add that some areas look better because of the planning (stronger hairline, thinner crown). Everything goes around your demands and suplies that donor can give. Logical fact that you have here is that somwhat longer hair gives a better illusion of "fullnes". If i would cut my hair shorter, I dont know how transparent my scalp could be. But I always liked haircuts that are not buzzed or shorter. Finnaly, I can also say that hair doesnt look that good when its completley wet. I usually dont see pictures like that on this forum and I didnt presonally shot them either. But thats something that doesnt bother me at all. I still do have a few months in front of me, so It will be really nice to see if these results can improve a bit more.
  4. These two pics are with some product, so not legit 100% Second one is too dark, but not really that important. Most of the guys are already well aware of their bennefit. I usually use spray on my crown and just bits of fibers to boost my results
  5. In a pharmacy in Zagreb. Well i cant really say much about this. I had a genetic test for AGA in 2019 so I used that pointer for the perscription. P. S. I know expierenced forum guys will know the answer. Can you tell me how to change the title? I just want to rephrase the line and put one more important information
  6. So, this is my 8 month and few days + update. I think everything is going pretty well. You will surely notice that the crown area is lagging. Not really sure what to expect over there, but Ill give it 4 more months at least to give it a proper asessment. I think that everything else looks really nice, not maybe 5 full stars🙃 but I still have some progress to do. I think I also need a slight haircut. This is all coming from a person that was wearing a hairpiece. I can honestly say that Im not thinking too much about the hair in the last couple of months. Im really liking my new appereance. Ht was a gamechanging move, just to be very very very very brief Will post some new pics in a month or two. P. S. Im on topical dutasteride, but not everyday. I also started oral minoxidile some 2 months ago and maybe will write more about that stuff if everyrhing goes well. Currently im on aprox 1.9 mg per day
  7. Hello guys. Thanks for the support and all the kind words. Like before, Im gonna post some new pics and give you an update. Will do that around 15.02. At that point of time I will hit month number 8.
  8. Well, my hair density all in all was regarded as average. Not really sure in the terms of FU per square cm density... I was discussing a bit about further steps if those happen in future. If I go with second FUT they could probably harvest between 2000 and 2500 FU and afterwards if desired, 3000+ FUE units more. Dont really now what could be max number of FU via FUE if that was the second step, but skilled team could harvest around 4000 FUE or so. If I want to mask my scar line, that would sum up some 300 FU's.
  9. Hmm, great question. Pls dont get me wrong, but I lost the correct data about this😁 But I did measure it in my home a few weeks ago. Its not correct in a single mm, but its 33 cm long. The number is more or less the same as far as I can remember when Laura was telling me about sizes. Well, thats pretty big. If you segment it in three parts, every strip is at least 10 or 10cm+ long. As for the strip in the back it was 2.5 cm thick, what is considered to be also pretty big. As far as the side strip lines go, Im not really sure and I dont want to guess. Maybe I can ask the doctor again next time. Also my operation was considered to be a "max strip process" since that was my wish. First impression via skype was 5000 fut grafts, after my live consult Sever told it would probably be 5500+. In the end was 6000+. Ofc scalp tension played a role in this. I did those exercises some 2 months prior to operation. I would reccomend anybody just to type this in Yt and one can see a guy called Doug that explains everything. He is probably still an employee of H&W. Thanks for the nice comments. I would agree that if i dont improve a lot from this, I would still be satisfied. No more hair piece!!!!
  10. Just a bit input about last 5 months or so. I would say that hair started to grow after i entered my 3 month. Something probably grew in month 2 but it wasnt really something to talk about. So, when 3 month passed and I entered my month number 4, things started to kick off. So I would say that the biggest change started to happen between 90th and 120th day. Fifth month is just a nice bonus. Im really looking forward for the next months, 6,7 and 8. I finnaly droped my hairpiece and went in public some 3 weeks ago. The feeling is priceless. I waited out so long, but in the end, all the patience was worth. Nobody knows that I transitioned from a hair piece guy to a normal hairstyle which I find one of my greatest achievements of my life. I wont be dweling too deep into my emotional state and feelings in last 5 months. But for me, it wasnt that hard at all, I dunno why. I went to a whole another town after my HT and started to work for a call center (lousy payment and shitty job but whatever) and pushed throught all this mess. I wouldnt recommend this to anybody though, haha. I can also say that the last time i felt something in my fut scar line was aprox some 3 months ago or even more. There is still some redness on the edges. I was pretty lucky with pimples on the way. I only had 2. One went away while washing my scalp and I poped the second one. It was huge and loking really nasty, but it was poped in a sec without any problems. Im doing very fine. When I go outside now I just sprinkle bit fibers in the front and midscalp and maybe a bit more in the crown area. As shown on the pictures, crown and parts of midscalp are maybe still not that full but I think its pretty okay. With every passing week there is certain improvement. Im still ofc in touch with team Hattingen. Dr Sever checked everything last time, said that the process is good. We will probably chat more in the future and he said that clinic will back me up if needed again. So, pls do some comments here. Be objective. Hope you also like it
  11. Hello guys. It has been 5 months and 2 weeks since my operation in Hattingen clinic. As promised here are some new pictures. Pls, give me some honest comments. But i can say that im really satisfied so far😇 Indoors but with lot of sunlight
  12. would say between month 2 and 3. In other words from the day 60 onwards. But Im not entirely sure
  13. I would say between month 2 and 3. In other words from the day 60 onwards. But Im not entirely sure
  14. Sides. There is still a lot of redness that can be seen around the scar area, (on the right side there is still a large gap, but I can see some new hairs coming out) and maybe my temporal parts dont look fullest... I think my scar line looks a lot better between my ears than that on the sides and the redness is fading with every passing week But I think its moving towards better times New updates around month 5. Cheers to everybody
  15. 105 days (3 and half months) Freshly washed hair (didnt comb it to cover my scar, just random position of hairs right out of shower, after drying) Donor area
  16. I will surely post some photos that show my linear scar. There is still some little redness, but I think overall it is improving week by week
  17. So, its my 99th day post op. I do have some new pics, maybe not the best quality. I hope things will kick off and that I will start to see improvements over the 4th and 5th month mark.
  18. John, thanks for the comment. Im trying to take pics in a place with lot of light. Im not tryin to fool anybody or myself. Im bit jumpy now cause a collegue commented about my donor area which seems see-through. Also, I didnt wash my hair for some 5 days prior to taking photos. Dont know does that add up some effect Well, nothing to do about. Just wait and do the steps
